Literally everyone in the world can see this is a braindead play except GM

The real answer is that it doesn't; you simply hear about it more. The other superpowers who are flying super-sonic jets around all day are much more secretive and if you think the retribution is bad here let me tell you it is worse in China or Russia. Also, people see these things with their naked eye all the time. Seriously, drive out to the mid-west and just look at the sky at night. You will see them up there, making their 90 degree turns and all. But the stigma is really so bad within our culture that people just don't talk about it, and light pollution is so bad in the cities that you can't see the sky anywhere near one.

Uh....BG3 was always $60. I bought it Oct 6th 2020.

No, of course not, it's lauded. I love it too, but it's a slow burn and most modern gamers don't have the attention span.

Yeah! Maybe not...everyone from that sub though...

They didn't keep the secret, like at all. There have been sightings everywhere, documents leaked, official reports and backtracking since Roswell. The trouble is that they managed to convince everyone that people who believe in aliens are crackpots, and they only exist in movies and TV. Now even when people see them they don't say anything because all of their friends look at them differently.

This is the most convincing part, in a political climate that can be called divisive at best.

If it's not real, it's a well-written and detailed piece of science-fiction. Writers create this kind of material every day, so it's certainly not something to take at face value. Add it to the bucket and we'll see eventually if it turns out to be real.

'Ear, 'ear!

Absurd. It falls apart as even the most basic level, because outside of communities like this most people still have no idea this is happening. It's being largely ignored by the media. Plus, hundreds of pilots have seen things and we'll see more and more come forward in the coming weeks. If the government doesn't want you to know about something, they don't have to create a diversion, they simply don't report it.

Hilarious, thank you.

Burchett calling someone "Brother"

First 5 seconds, I guarantee it.

This is really gross. An opinion article making dramatic debunking claims with zero evidence and linking to other opinion pieces, blogs, and youtube videos in a desperate attempt to appear thoroughly-sourced.

I want to remove this, but I'd rather remind people here that we are not buying into a UFO scam, we are fighting against decades of disinformation and government secrets that have led to a global taboo about anything related to aliens. Contributing to that stigma and status-quo because you're worried someone might write a book makes me sick. We want the truth, and people like this want you to give up and go home. Fuck them.

Here's an article on the amendment with some more explanation, if you're not inclined to parse that document.

Fundamentally, the new language proposed for inclusion in the 2023 NDAA focuses on reporting procedures related to UAP, along with ensuring transparency on information the Pentagon collects about unrecognized aerial objects encountered by members of the armed forces. The bill’s language calls for ensuring that data collected about UAP is shared with the UAP Task Force’s successor, the Airborne Object Identification Management and Synchronization Group (AOIMSG), as well as by offering protections for those who come forward with such information.

Among the key elements included within the bill’s language are takeaways that include:

• Nondisclosure orders and written agreements will not prohibit the disclosure of UAP information to the UAPTF or the Office.
• That the Intelligence Community shall establish a system for reporting of UAP-related information, regardless of classification level, to the UAPTF or the Office.
• Language calling for the protection of witnesses that share UAP-related information from liability, as well as retaliation, for the breach of NDA.

In effect, this legislation would allow for witnesses or personnel, who have information or data at a higher classification level or SAP, to provide members of UAPTF or the Office with data that UAPTF are not cleared for or “read-into.” Additionally, by doing so, witnesses or personnel, who would otherwise be breaching their NDA by disclosing information, will no longer be found to be in breach, and therefore are free from prosecution or sanctions.

I think religion is one of the primary reasons that we haven't had disclosure to this point, as frankly it cannot continue to exist afterward. I'm already experiencing a good amount of ontological shock -- imagine how those cults like Elevation will react. These people truly only behave because they believe some creator is watching them. There will be blood in the streets when they realize that's not true.

It sounds like you haven't watched the hearing, so maybe you should actually do that before you deign to comment on how stupid the whole thing is.

I was honestly shocked by how many paintings were clearly depicting space ships when I visited the Louvre. I really wonder if we'll be fully rewriting the history books soon...

Doesn't look like anything to me.

Dragonfruit. How do people eat that shit? It tastes like you drank a glass of water someone farted on.

We're really bad at a lot of things, despite what we have achieved. Just because you have a piece of material doesn't mean you can just recreate it. It's like Newton being handed a CPU. He may even be able to look at the nanoscale structures but he sure as shit can't recreate it. We're simply that far behind.

That mega link is full of crazy shit. The most believable thing I saw is the MJ-12 manual for crash retrieval procedures. It feels exactly as sterile and matter-of-fact as I would expect from a government manual that discusses how to handle cleanup of alien crash sites.

But yeah, there's waaaay too much to look at there. Frankly a lot of it is dubious at best, but at this point I can't tell which things are too far-fetched and which ones are plausible. One hang up I have is the conflict between the claimed technologies. Granted, all the docs I read about it were (apparently) from the 60s or earlier, so maybe something changed since then but they commonly talk about nuclear propulsion and turbine designs. This jives with the idea of places like Lockheed Martin using the tech to develop planes and such, but then where does the gravity manipulation (E115) come from?

Then there's the letter where someone claims that EMEs have been polluting Earth and shit and causing climate change to kill off people I guess? I'm willing to accept that my worldview could change a lot in the near future but that's...a lot.

EDIT: Oh yeah and also alien invasion imminent 2030.
